The underlying reason for the response aside: do you ever hear expressions that people use that just irk you? A patient explained that she consulted a primary care physician for chronic back pain, and he decided to order an MRI. When I asked what he was trying to rule out, she said, “This isn’t his first rodeo.” (Internal cringe elicited).

What’s yours?

"conspiracy theorist" - too often used in dishonest efforts to avoid serious debate, and/or support propaganda, and/or suppress dissent

It’s a win-win.
State of the art.
Disrupting the industry. Disrupter.

Timepiece / It is what it is / Git her done / Utilize / using “myself” instead of “me” or “I” / Wear in Good Health (I’ll wear my watch in any state of health). And any use of Grocer’s Apostrophes. (Or is it Grocers’ Apostrophe?).

Oh, and anyone who enters my leather shop and says: “so, you do leather work?”

And here is the timepiece that myself has been utilizing for the last two day’s.

“That triggered me.”
“I don’t feel safe.”
“That’s not getting any traction.”
“I did a deep-dive.”

(YOU'RE tired of it? )

To the OP: "Would you like to add a tip?"

“I don’t feel seen or heard”
“Better than money in the bank”
“Geezer watch”
“Lets get this sold”
“Unworn” (followed by picture of watch on wrist)
“NOS” (followed by picture of mint item with use-marks)
“Rare” (followed by picture of item where there are 1000000 of them)
“Value Proposition“
“Punches above its weight”
